Abstract
Compared with the increasing prevalence of public value literature, the importance of public values research is seriously underestimated. This essay attempts to shed lights on this topic. Using a case study, we want to explore in which ways the public values could be constructed through cross-sector networking. The research findings are threefold: (1) the network collaboration is essential for building public values, however, it is difficult to be maintained; (2) the network is underpinned by three logics- the institutionalised measurement logic, the informal interpersonal relationship and core agent logic, and the bureaucratic logic; (3) the performance of building public values can be evaluated by a continuous spectrum; within this spectrum raising awareness and facilitating actions are more challenging.
